February 6th, 2013 - The Silver Fox Steakhouse 572 viewsWhile visiting his friend and one of his self-described heroes, Jim Kelly in upstate New York during the month of February, Ben stopped and had dinner at the acclaimed "Silver Fox Steakhouse" in Ellicottville, NY. Before he left, he posed with Head Chef Jack Atkinson and some of his staff.

"I'm a huge Steelers fan, and of Ben as well. It was my pleasure to cook for him. He was extremely gracious to my staff and myself posing for pictures and signing autographs." -- Jack Atkinson

Chad & Jennifer Pointer, June 29, 2012828 views"We were married in West Palm Beach, Florida, the same place I proposed a year before. We then had our reception back home in Indiana - even entered the room to 'Renegade' playing. We try to make it 4 or 5 games a year although its a 500-mile drive from my driveway to Heinz and we have to be back at work on those Mondays." -- Chad Pointer

Chad & Jennifer Pointer, June 29, 2012832 viewsThe Pointer's Steelers-themed wedding included a Steelers wedding cake, of course!

"Ben in my book is second to NONE from his Ironman play on the field to his K9 work off the field. Hopefully I can get Antonio to introduce me to Ben this year in Latrobe, that's like our annual trip (has been the last 3 yrs), we just haven't been lucky enough to meet him. Thanks again Go STEELERS!" -- Chad PointerMar 04, 2013

February, 2013 - Garrett Koch's school project464 viewsGarrett and his teacher, Mrs. Stahlman, pose with his poster.

Students in Mrs. Stahlman's third grade class at Big Walnut Elementary School in Sunbury, Ohio recently learned about biographies through an interest-based project. Students were given the choice of a famous person that they wanted to research. Their end project was the biography poster. Garrett is a huge Steelers fan and loves wearing his Roethlisberger jersey to school, so the choice of completing his project on Big Ben was an easy one!

Mark Cooper, Principal of Big Walnut Elemetary (and a big Steelers fan himself) tweeted Garrett's awesome poster to the site's Twitter page!

And thank you to Garrett's parents, both of whom are Cleveland Browns fans, for allowing us to share Garrett's work with his fellow Steelers fans!

Leslie Slack's collection455 views"I took this photo of my 'Ben collection'. As you can see I collect anything 'Ben'. I live in New Castle PA. and hear he comes to town from time to time. I would love to run into him sometime just to chat a minute. I saw him at camp for a brief time while he signed my jersey and another time when he signed a football for me. I don't know why but both times I managed to say something really stupid. I love your site and visit it at least 3 or 4 times a day." -- Leslie Slack
